The screenplay doesn’t merely move its characters from one moment to the next; it tells us why they make the choices they do.Why does Parvathy feel comfortable opening up to a complete stranger? Why does Das risk his own survival to help Chandra? Why does Chandra choose to stay with him despite knowing the danger it entails?
